Grown-up thinking on transit

Will next Liberal premier level with voters about gridlock: Cohn, Jan. 16

Martin Regg Cohn calls for political will to tax drivers to pay for the Big Move, which will provide high-speed transit that the GTA desperately needs. When it comes to advancing big initiatives, which require big public money, people can be counted on to scream, yell, threaten, gnash their teeth and froth at the mouth in defiance. Once action — like installing road tolls — happens, many will settle down. Deep down, they will know it’s the grown-up thing to do to reduce gridlock and fund a world-class transit system that the GTA urgently needs and deserves.
